Spring doesn't register file type for replay files

Post by bwansy »

...after reinstalling Spring. Recently I uninstalled Spring on D:\ and re-installed it in C:\ (don't ask why :P ). Before that, I used to be able to double click the replay files to watch them directly. But now, the file type is not recognised. I tried right-click>open with>choose program>select program from list>browse, then found spring.exe, but it didn't work. I just won't let me open it directly with spring.exe. I tried adding the file type manually, but no luck either. Of course I can watch it using taclient, so this is just a problem that "would be good if it's fixed, but not urgent at all". Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

Control panel -> folder options -> file types -> new -> sdf, change, spring.exe

If that doesn't work, it probably requires a command line parameter (accessible from the advanced button)...not sure what though

:roll:
Thanks for your response, anyway. I guess it has something to do with registry entries that wasn't completely removed while uninstalling, therefore creating a conflict. I hope installing 0.77 (when it comes out) will fix this.
